A method and apparatus for adjusting a boot option of a server, a non-volatile readable storage medium, and an electronic apparatus are provided. The method for adjusting a boot option of a server includes: invoking, in response to detecting failure of an adjustment operation executed for a boot option of a target server, a first detection parameter corresponding to the target server; detecting a connection state of a universal serial bus (USB) port of the target server according to the first detection parameter; and adjusting, in response to determining that the USB port connection state is used to indicate that a target USB port connected to a target USB device is provided on the target server, a boot option of a USB device to a target boot option of the target server.

Provided is a collecting apparatus. The collecting apparatus may include: a collector collecting test data generated in a specific test space; a data server keeping the test data generated in the specific test space, and a handler of an administrator.

This disclosure enables various hardware/software configurations that enable verification of stability of production environments. These configurations are technologically advantageous and improve functioning of computers, because these configurations minimize interference with or disruption of business operations in production environments, while allowing non-technical personnel to perform due diligence of various IT equipment in such environments and enabling iterative feedback to allow for identification of gaps in such diligence.

There are disclosed various methods, apparatuses and computer program products for a testing apparatus. In accordance with an embodiment the testing apparatus comprises a frame; a gripping head for gripping a device to be tested; a first movement element for moving the gripping head with respect to the frame; a movement detector to detect at least one of a location and a position of the device; a touching element for touching the device; an imaging device for capturing images of the device; a display for generating visual information for capturing by the device; a set of sensors for examining operations of the device; a set of actuators for providing signals for reception by the device; and a set of plugs adapted to be inserted into a socket of the device.

A test method based on a data switch is provided. In the method, a configuration instruction sent from the upper computer is received, and the configuration instruction comprises a direction parameter of data flow and a rate parameter, the data switch is configurated according to the direction parameter of data flow and the rate parameter, and a test based on the configured data switch is performed. The method can not only realize rate conversion of data transmission between the communication devices, but also improve convenience and flexibility of port configuration.

Systems and methods include an Information Handling System (IHS) that is adapted to provide diagnostic boot cycles. Once an IHS is powered, a boot sequence is initiated. During or after booting of the IHS, a request is detected for a diagnostic boot cycle by a requestor, such as by the operating system of the IHS. When a diagnostic boot cycle has been requested, an EC (Embedded Controller) of the IHS is booted in a diagnostic mode to perform a diagnostic test on one or more hardware components of the IHS. The results of the diagnostic test are stored to the NVRAM (Non-Volatile Random-Access Memory) that stores the boot code and that is accessible to the requestor of the diagnostic test once the IHS has been rebooted to a non-diagnostic mode.

Disclosed is a handshaking method applied to a data storage system including a host system and a data storage device. The handshaking method includes the following steps: applying for a host memory buffer from the host system by the data storage device; transmitting, by the host system, a command descriptor to the host memory buffer, so that the data storage device performs standalone behavior based on the command descriptor in the host memory buffer, and transmits an operation log corresponding to the standalone behavior to the host memory buffer; and continuously monitoring, by the host system, the host memory buffer until the data storage device completes the standalone behavior and transmits a response descriptor to the host memory buffer. Therefore, the host memory buffer is used as a communication interface between the host system and the data storage device, so that the data storage device can perform more diverse operations.

Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for automating the identification of events in a text file. In examples, a computing system identifies a subset of a text file that comprises an unknown event using a set of rules. Each rule of the set of rules specifying a first pattern of characters is compared to the subset of the first text file. When the set of rules does not identify the unknown event, the subset of the text file is provided to a language model to generate a new rule with a second pattern of characters and an identifier of the new rule. The system then generates an updated set of rules by adding the new rule to the set of rules.

An approach for collecting diagnostic information, associated with a software system, based on identifying an abnormal log. The approach predicts a first time interval associated with a current log message based on one or more trained models and a first previous log message. The approach determines if a log is a suspected abnormal log based on the time interval. The approach, responsive to the log being a suspected abnormal log, executes actions of collecting additional diagnostic information based on a baseline diagnostic information collection rate, determines if the log is no longer a suspected abnormal log based at least on a second time interval. The approach, responsive to the log no longer being a suspected abnormal log, returns to the baseline diagnostic information collection rate.

Systems and methods for handling storage device diagnostics in an Information Handling System (IHS) are described. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, an IHS may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: transmit a request for a storage diagnostic to an engine configured to transform the request into a vendor library call, where the vendor library call is configured to communicate an indication of the request to a storage device driver of a storage device; and receive a response to the request.
